What drying runs into in Union City
Serving Union City and the surrounding area, including The Shades, Lincoln Harbor.
Local housing stock
80 percent of Union City's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1961, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1961 with four in five buildings older, this is about as dense as housing gets: buildings share walls on both flanks with openings only at the front and back, so a home running through the middle of a floor has rooms with no outside wall at all.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 49.52 inches, 4.6 of them in July, against a warm season that peaks at 77.5 degrees in July; both figures recorded at NEW YORK CNTRL PK TWR, 3.4 miles away. July is the wettest month at under five inches of a fifty inch year with two months averaging a low below freezing, so the wet season is warm; a room with no window and no exterior wall cannot be aired at any time of year, whatever the weather is doing.
How water losses tend to end in Union City
- Interior rooms with no exterior wall, so there is no opening to move air through at all
- Party walls on both flanks, so a wet assembly is shared with a neighbor on either side
- Access only through the front or the back, so equipment and material travel the length of an occupied home
